Good run: Price has strung together three solid starts, beating the Yankees and Red Sox and losing to the Tigers, with a 1.87 ERA and .175 average. He is 8-1, 2.19 in 10 starts vs. Toronto, including 2-0, 4.74 at Rogers Centre.

On the Morrow: It has been a rough month for Morrow, who is 1-3, 4.97 in four starts. He struck out 17 and took a no-hitter into the ninth vs. the Rays last year, and overall he is 3-2, 1.87 in 10 games against them.

RHP Jeff Niemann pleaded ignorance after his 6⅓-inning outing ended the streak of Rays starters working at least seven innings at 11 games, the longest such run since the 2003 Mariners did so. "I had no idea," he said. "Well, that stinks. I'm sure the other guys will pick me up."
